December 22, 20223 yr The P40-F could out turn the other American fighters, even the Mustang. Had heavy armor and six guns. It's range was about double the Messersmidt or Spitfire. Most of the flyers loved it. But it wasn't fast and climbed slowly. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.

In terms of systems simulation, I would have said they appear to be about the same though the P-40 does have persistent maintenance, which is nice. Modeling is pretty high quality on both and I like how iniBuilds allows you to remove the cowling to see the engine, as well as show baggage and tie downs. FlyingIron seems to have the better textures though, and they are miles ahead in terms of sound quality - it is really night and day on that part, which is a bit of a shame because the sound of warbirds is one of their biggest attractions imo. FlyingIron seem to have captured all the depth and nuances, whereas the P40 sounds a little flat to me, and in startup for example, I can hear where they've faded the startup sound into the running sound - it's a bit meh. But yeah, for the price it was, I'm very happy with it, and no doubt it will continue to improve. Edited December 22, 20223 yr by s0cks
